Leveraging the Celonis Process Intelligence platform and its object-centric process mining (OCPM) technology, ASOS connects its product, inbound supply chain, logistics and outbound delivery and returns teams, providing a holistic, real-time view of the full supply chain process. This enables the firm to gain actionable insights into key supply chain performance metrics, which help drive faster, more reliable order fulfilment.

Unprecedented insights into key operational areas

ASOS is a prime example of how leading retailers can use process intelligence to transform their operations, said Rupal Karia, general manager for UKI and MEA at Celonis. “Together, we’re unlocking the full potential of ASOS’ supply chain to deliver faster, smarter and more efficient operations at scale.”

With process intelligence, ASOS gains unprecedented insights into key operational areas including:

• End-to-end supply chain optimization: ASOS can now achieve full end-to-end supply chain optimization by gaining real-time visibility into its entire inbound logistics process. The company can efficiently track thousands of SKUs and shipping containers – from initial purchase order creation to final placement in distribution centers. This advanced supply chain visibility enables ASOS to streamline operations, improve decision-making and understand the impact of each logistics process on overall performance.
• Returns and carrier performance management: ASOS can track third-party carrier performance and SLA adherence. With improved supply chain visibility, ASOS is optimizing returns management and enhancing carrier performance tracking. These improvements are driving operational efficiency, reducing costs and boosting customer satisfaction – ultimately strengthening the company’s bottom line.
• Upstream and downstream operations: By providing insights into product performance, returns and pricing trends, Celonis helps ASOS’ commercial and merchandising teams make data-driven decisions on vendor investments and pricing strategies, ensuring better product planning. Celonis also empowers ASOS to enhance customer experience and improve cost efficiency through proactive communication. By identifying potential delivery or return delays early, the system alerts customers before they reach out to support, reducing call center volume, minimizing operational costs and boosting overall customer satisfaction.
